SHULTZ SUFFERING FROM POPULARITY

Former Secretary of State George Shultz spent his first day at the Hoover Institution in Palo Alto, Calif., learning to "just say no" to requests for speeches and interviews.

"The invitations are overwhelming," said Phyllis Whiting, Shultz's assistant, at the think tank on Stanford University's campus. "They want to give him honorary degrees and awards, they want him to give talks or interviews."
